Frequently asked questions

A headless CMS manages and stores content but does not handle how it is displayed. Instead of generating HTML pages, it exposes your content through a REST API so any frontend can consume it. You decide what technology to use: Astro, Next.js, Nuxt, Vue, React, a mobile app, whatever fits your stack. This separation gives developers full design freedom while editors keep working in a structured, familiar panel. Ágora CMS is built around this headless model, making it ideal for agencies and developers who need flexible content management without being tied to a specific frontend framework.

To manage content from the panel, no — anyone can write posts, upload images and publish without any technical knowledge. The editorial interface is clean and intuitive, designed for content editors and clients alike. To consume the content from a frontend, a developer does need to know how to make a basic fetch request to a REST API. That is usually just a few lines of JavaScript. Ágora CMS is designed so agencies can hand the panel to clients while developers handle the frontend integration independently.

You make a GET request to the REST API with your API Key in the X-API-Key header and your site ID as a query parameter. The response is clean JSON you can render however you like — no transformation required. You can filter results by language, category, tag or publication status. Ágora CMS works with any HTTP client: native fetch in JavaScript, axios, curl or any server-side language. Full examples are available in the API documentation.

Yes. One workspace can have as many websites as your plan allows — from 1 site on the free plan to unlimited on the Agency plan. Each site is completely isolated: its own content, languages, users and API Key. You switch between sites using a selector in the panel without logging out. This is one of the core features that makes Ágora CMS ideal for agencies managing multiple client projects from a single headless CMS account.

We will warn you before you hit the limit. If you exceed it, you can upgrade to the Pro or Agency plan at any time — changes take effect immediately. We never delete your content because you exceeded a limit. The free plan is a genuine starting point, not a crippled trial, so you can evaluate Ágora CMS as a headless CMS for real projects before committing to a paid plan.

Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade at any time from the billing panel. Changes take effect immediately and billing is prorated, so you only pay for what you actually use. There are no minimum terms or cancellation fees. If your agency grows and you need to manage more sites, moving to a higher plan is a single click.

All data is stored on servers within the European Union. Ágora CMS complies fully with GDPR. We do not share your data with third parties and we do not use it for advertising or analytics purposes. If you are building projects for EU clients, you can confidently point them to our headless CMS knowing the content and credentials are hosted under European data protection law.

No. Paid plans are billed monthly and you can cancel at any time with no penalty, no notice period and no long-term commitment. If you cancel, your account stays active until the end of the current billing period. We believe the product should speak for itself — if Ágora CMS is not the right headless CMS for your workflow, you should not be stuck paying for it.

Yes — a headless blog is one of the primary use cases Ágora CMS is built for. You get a full WYSIWYG editor, categories, tags, featured images, SEO metadata per post, scheduled publishing and multilingual support out of the box. Publish your posts in the panel, then fetch them via the REST API and render them with any frontend framework you choose. See the posts documentation for full details on the blog endpoints and available filters.

Yes, completely. Ágora CMS is framework-agnostic by design. Because it exposes content through a standard REST API that returns JSON, it works with any stack that can make an HTTP request: Next.js, Astro, Nuxt, Vue, React, SvelteKit, Angular, Remix, a native mobile app or even a simple static site generated by a script. You are not tied to any SDK or proprietary client library — just a plain fetch call with your API Key in the header.

Ágora CMS differs from Contentful and Strapi in three key areas: price, native multi-site support, and simplicity. Contentful becomes expensive quickly once you need multiple environments or locales. Strapi requires you to self-host and manage a Node.js server. Ágora CMS offers multi-site management natively from day one — one account, multiple client sites — at a fraction of the cost, with no server to maintain. It is designed specifically for agencies and freelancers who need a practical headless CMS without enterprise pricing or self-hosting complexity. See the full product features to compare what is included.

Yes. Multilingual support is built directly into Ágora CMS — there is no plugin to install or extra configuration to set up. Each site can have as many languages as you need, and every piece of content — posts, categories, tags and custom post type entries — is managed separately per language. The REST API accepts a lang= parameter so your frontend always receives the correct language version without any client-side filtering.

Yes. Ágora CMS has complete API documentation covering all available endpoints: posts, custom content types, media, categories and tags. Each endpoint includes the required parameters, response structure, example requests in curl and JavaScript, and notes on authentication. You can find everything in the documentation section.
